Q&A: All About Allulose

Q. Stevia tastes a bit sour, but what does allulose taste like?

A. Most of our customers say that the taste and texture of allulose are similar to those of honey.

Q. Can I store allulose at room temperature?

A. Yes, allulose can be stored at room temperature as long as you avoid direct sunlight. Although refrigeration is acceptable, please note that the product may crystallize if kept in the fridge for an extended period.

Q. What is the difference between fructooligosaccharide and isomaltooligosaccharide?

A. Fructooligosaccharides are sensitive to heat, so their use is limited to sauces and cold dishes. In contrast, isomaltooligosaccharides are known to raise blood sugar during digestion.

Unlike these two, most allulose consumed is excreted from the body without being absorbed, making it suitable for use in various dishes, such as stews, stir-fries, and steamed dishes.
